Anime has gone too far

Listen, people, this thread was not made only to bash on anime. My main topic here is not "i hate anime OMG you guys are stupid for liking it." No, I'm stating that I can't visit the basilmarket forums once without hearing about how anime is the magic of your lives. It's so annoying that it's gotten me to the point of making a thread to tell everyone to please stop making every last thread to praise it. That means it has gone too far. Anime itself is fine, I have no problem with it. The way basilers talk about it so much is not.

Everyday I come to the basilmarket forums to discuss new topics about things going on around the world, I can never do that because anime is apparently the only thing that exists in the world. It should be about the latest news, like the Superbowl, for instance. Or maybe how mass shootings are happening more and more often in the U.S. Instead, I see "What anime are you watching right now?" or "Your top 5 anime shows?" or "Anime is so awesome". And things like "I can't get this anime song out of my head please help" or "OMG anime is so cool what are your favorite anime shows?" I really don't care what anime you're watching right now anymore, I don't care what your favorite anime is, I don't care how obsessed with anime you are. You don't have to make anime your clear topic so many times. Please [b]just stop talking about it![/b] I can never manage to stop hearing about it on basilmarket. It's gotten really ridiculous.

Pokemon, I can admit without a doubt, is one of the biggest parts of my life. Everyday anime lovers who feel that they need to remind everyone about how they love anime so much make it less fun and entertaining. These days I can't play Pokemon SoulSilver without the thought of this site in my head. My head sometimes literally starts hurting after the moment I see those daily anime threads that come up every time I decide to get on BM. Please. I can't believe it's really come to this point. Even as I write this thread, I'm trying really hard to contain my anger here. It really gets frustrating to hear something over and over and over again.

I'm done now. No offense to all anime lovers or if you're offended by this, I'm only saying I just can't take it. If you're going to start flaming me for this, I couldn't care less. So it won't really affect me. I'm not really telling anyone what to do, so if you think that, just know I'm not...

@biyomon3 Did you really just say "This is a forum for a video game, why do you expect people to talk about real life stuff?"? Oh I don't know, maybe because there's a CHAT section that we're in now, that clearly states talk about topics NOT related to MS, and I see threads in this section talking about real life stuff. Did you even think about that as you posted your comment?

@Piggable I think the same thing I told the person above goes to you, too. And no I won't lock my thread, sorry.

I don't know if you two are oblivious or just trolling.

Well that's too bad for you.
You can't really do anything about it, so deal with it.

If you weren't trying to bash on anime, you would have named it "y'all talk about anime way too much" or something. If you actually thought like the kind of person who would engage in real life issues in Basil, you're clearly in the wrong place. The chat section has these kinds of topics, yes, but it's not something you should expect. This site is first and foremost a MMO forum with a nifty auction system.

well, I mean, maplestory is anime-esque. And most maplers are asian. So it's no surprise that you see so many anime lovers here.

[quote=AlmostLegendary]That being said, this is, first and foremost, a Maple Story forum - an MMORPG with chibi-like characters. Its almost expected that it and anime go hand-in-hand.[/quote]

@BlueColt In what way did you owned me? Are you ucked in the head? If you're not affected why quote back? You're a waste of time, why do I even bother talking to someone braindead as you. No I'm not 3 years old, retard..

You're just mad child. I'm not angry at anything, just laughing at your stupidity, that you're affected that resorts to posting back. Lmao!

Hey everyone! I got "purely owned" step back we got a bad ass over here! Sit down and keep posting back because you're mad
Wanna discuss things going on around the world? Go to another forum, because no1 gives a damn.

@jamppa What are you talking about? I didn't see any comment of yours. Oh, I see, so in your head, because I don't answer to you, that automatically makes me a prick, right? I didn't see it, did you consider that at all? I love how you assume things so quickly. What's your IQ, kid? 15. Hahaha I knew basilers would be sensitive to these kinds of things.

EDIT: Oh, okay. After checking back for yours, I see it. Love how you typed "I'd like to see OP respond to this" just after you typed that comment calling me a prick... mhm. Yes, it seems I actually did see it, but didn't recognize you as that poster, and I didn't reply either because you sort of agreed with me, but disagreed at the same time, so I felt that your comment was fine and didn't need a response. But then you start crying about how you didn't get a response, and then start calling me a prick... it's really simple, it all makes sense: you have no brain. Well I guess that means I should put you down as the second basiler who's gotten angry at me because they're really sensitive...

I find most of the anime recommendation threads annoying and repetitive.
Especially when the posts are full of bad taste.

@WhoaMomma1 You say that as if I'm the kid and you're the smart, tough one here. If I'm so stupid and you're so awesome, how come I have a full time job at Oracle and you're a 3-year old dumbass living in your mom's basement. Why? If you want to say "dealing with kids everyday.. OMFG", I hope you're referring to yourself because it would make much more sense than to be referring to me. Again, it's really funny how you're getting angry that you're being purely owned by me and I'm not getting affected at all. You can tell because I don't construct my sentences as if I were screaming while typing, and I'm sitting here laughing at how much of an idiot you are to type this...

I know what you mean.
I see the same subjects all the time.
No real subjects. Basil has changed.

But you have to realize who go on this site now. It is full of asians and/or asian wannabes.
Those who are not that category is a few here.

@BlueColt And you're probably the most braindead stupid child, seeing how you're trying to be so smart at Grammar skills. It's not even necessary so many stupid commas.

@WhoaMomma1 Why did you just waste your time writing a meaningless post. That failed to hurt anyone. Haha sorry but you're probably the most immature person I know now, that's from seeing your typing skills.

@PcPls123 I already said in my description that I'm not bashing on anime. I also said that I'm fine with anime, I just don't like how it's being used as a main topic so much on basilmarket. Then again, you were probably trolling. So who cares...

Psh. I don't care if you hate anime threads. I see plenty of other threads along the lines of personal issues, or just something simple like how someones day was at school. If you hate them then just go to another thread. Cause anime isn't the only thread out there. If you wish to talk about something else, the. Make a new thread. Don't waste your time with it. A lot of basilers like anime a lot, so that's what people tend to talk most about, and like I stated before, if you don't like it make a new thread.

@Segumisama I'm just saying, could you please tell me what other ways there are to tell people this?

@SeeminglyExists Listen, man, was I just supposed to sit here and listen to the continuous rampage of anime? Nope.

And all other people who are saying they haven't seen anime threads today except for this, here are 3 things:

1. Wasn't referring to today, I was referring to BM lately/these days.
2. I didn't mean that it was always supposed to come up, but I meant that it's been talked about so much more than other things.
3. I was exaggerating (maybe I did over exaggerate) OBVIOUSLY, and you know that. So there.

Just some things to clear up there.

I'm just telling you right now, but most of Basil's population are Asians.
Most* asians enjoy watching Anime.

Case in point, you're not going to stop hearing about Anime and to hope for such an event to occur is ludicrous if only due to the impossible nature of the stated request.

You know whats really funny
People who make anime threads won't give a shoot.
You wasted a few minutes of you're life making a thread that you probably thought would go out and make people stop making anime threads

Your thread is the only thread I ran into today that was even remotely related to anime so I don't know what you're talking about.

your alternatives are pretty crap. i don't care much about sports and i'm Beyonce'd out, so the Superbowl is a no (and i'm sure there were threads about it anyway). i really don't need depressing news on a bs forum i come to waste time on (i get my news elsewhere when i want to feel bad/mad), so talking about shootings and such (which also happens here) doesn't seem appealing either.
anime threads aren't any more frequent than the other topics in the Basil Cycle, and they're no more annoying than the jargon-filled LoL threads or beta as hell girl problem threads. the only problem with Basil in relation to anime is that they have subpar taste, objectively.
